Since trypsin is a broad-range protease, it appears that cell membrane proteins play only a minor role in MuV entry into cells and that trypsin action favors infection by uncovering membrane glycolipids, as has been demonstrated in studies of in vitro infection with Sendai virus [25] and porcine rubulavirus LPMV [26].

The Paramyxovirinae include the genera Parainfluenzavirus (such as Sendai virus), Rubulavirus (such as mumps in humans), Morbillivirus (such as measles in humans), and Henipavirus (such as Hendra virus).
